Hi Markus,

the FSM database uses Azure SQL PaaS Database.  

SQL Server technology is used to create full, differential and transaction log backups for the purposes of point-in-time restore (PITR).

Backups are written to Azure Geo-Redundant Storage (RA-GRS), which is replicated to a secondary Azure Region for Disaster Recovery (DR) purposes.

Backups are additionally encrypted at rest using Transparent Database Encryption (TDE).

Retention: 35 Days

Backup Frequency:  

Transaction log backups occur every 5-10 minutes. Differential backups occur every 12 hours.

This is handled by Azure and is not configurable.

You may want to verify the above with the IFS Cloud Team by raising a ticket (“Any other question”) as different terms may apply to your contract.

Best regards
Roman
